It could be a sunrise, a winding road, the next bend in the river, a clump of trees in a field, or the way the sunlight strikes nearby buildings creating interesting shadows. You never know what will "catch your eye" and compel you to grab your sketch book, camera, or create a painting.
It is my challenge to find out what the 'it' is that's "catching my eye" and then figure out why. Sounds simple, it might come to you in a flash or it can take hours of study and sketches to figure this out. Then after all has been discovered and compositional designs have been made, the real work begins.
Visit my gallery and maybe you will find a painting that will "catch your eye".
